These sketches h we o vaiue as giving perma-
nence to impressions of ex met or nearly extinct
phases of social life. The peculiar conditions
which differentiated the South from the rest Of tho
country before the war. the changes which that
war wrought upon the planter life. and the substi-
tuition of new relations siace the collapse of the
rebellion, are all indicated and in many respects
carefully photographed by Mrs. Walworth. There
has grown up special school of fiction about the
Southern war changes and memories, but perhaps
from instructive feeling for the picturesQue. or
possibly because the romance OF the De2f past
takes form most clearly and naturally In the irop-
ical imagination Of tho negro the tendency toward

Easter Sunday.

Large congregations attended at all the
churches yesterday. The usual services were
held at st. Andrews. There were two cele-
brations of Communion, at $50 by the
Bishop of Honolulu and at 1880 By the Rev.
George Wallace. At the former service their
Majesties were present. At the $50 service a
number of sailors from II. B. NJ. S. Caroline
we're present. At the HIS service the music
was special feature, and an excellent Easter
anthem, "Christ our passover" was admir-
ably sung, Mr.. /. Mays tenor solo and Mr..
Starkey's bass being specially good. Rev.
Geo. Wallace preached the sermon. The
church was prettily decorated with flowers
and ferns. After morning service Com
munion service was again celebrated.
At Fort street the Easter praise service was
held in the evening, there being a crowded
congregation. The decorations were very
fine, some of the flower pieces being most
graceful and rich. A heart of roses, shading
from blood red to white, was specially strlk-
ing. The musical programme was under the
direction of Mr.. Yarndley, and was finely
rendered. The services were conducted by
Rev. G. NJ. Hyde L. Smith, E. Bailey and w
b. Oleson, the latter of whom preached the
sermon.
The Roman Catholic Church celebrated
the day with high mass and other services,
which were attended by crowds of worship
ers. The music was well chosen and CAPT
tally sung.
The Bethel Church held an interesting
Easter service for the Sunday school.

From Samoa.

The following news relating 10 the Ha-
waiian Embassy at Samoa is from the Sa-
moan correspondent of the New Zealand
Herald and is published in its issue of March
10th. 1t would seem that the Embassy is
following out the principles laid down at
home OF " free GIN" and debauching the
natives there, in the face of law prohibit
ing the sale of intoxicants to the SamOans
If this is the sole object of the mission to
Samoa, the sooner an indignant pOpulaee
exterminates this barnacle the better, not
only for themselves but for the world at large:
There are a number of buildings being
erected now in the municipality. Two are
hotels and the rest stores. The Hawaiian
Embassy is building large saloon in front
of the residence, in which to entertain their
guests. On the 18th instant large enter
tainment was given to Samoan chiefs by the
Embassy. A large number of bottles, some
partly filled and some unopened, left ar i'm
preston to passers-by the next morning that
quantity Of liquor was wasted. The iollitv
continued nearly all night, during which
time the policemen we're hard at work keep
ing order. 1t is against the law to supply in
tOxicating drinks to SamOans, but somehow
or other these Hawaiian gentry manage to
evade it, and one told policeman, when
carrying out his duty in preventing a dis
tnrbance on the main road, not to interfere
with a certain person as he was under the
Hawaiian flag. Whatever may be the mo-
tives of the Hawaiian Government in sending
ambassadors here, actions setting the present
administration at defiance cannot be met
with approval"

Major Hendershot' 'siEntertainment-

On Saturday evening Major Hendershot,
better known as the Drummer Boy of the
Rappahannock," made his first appearances
before a Honolulu audience at the Opera
House. The Drummer Boy was ably as
sisted by well-knoWn local talent, and good
programme was presented. Commander Il.
W. Laine introduced the Major to the
audience in humorous little speech, con =
cluding by presenting him with pair Of
gold-mOdnted koa drum sticks, the latter re-
plying with the promise that he should dur
ing life use these with credit to the donors
and the "old flag
The entertainment commenced with the
RECIPROCITY March" by the Hawaiian band,
followed by Drum Major w. g. King, who
played reveille on the drum. which called
forth Major Ashford Capt Hebbard and
selected squad of sixteen men of the Homo
lulu Rifles, which done credit 10 the CORDS.
The Drummer Boy then took up his
Greeley drum and fairly made it talk, going
from the highest to the lowest notes with an
ease and grace which done him great credit
and brought the house down with an encore.
The Major responded with " Marching
Through Georgia"
Miss A. G. Austin sang loudly applanded
solo, while Miss Hopper played the accom-
paniment. The Major gave Life on the
Ocean Wave" using the Hawaiian drum

sisted by Mr.. MichieIs with cornet solo,
the latter being encored, which was responded
to, and Mr. Berger played the accompani-
ment on the piano.
The third number of the Majors was Gen.
Phil. Sheridan's favorite march, which was
executed in masterl- tanner. The band
achieved fresh laurel \ rough addition Of q

great eelat, concluding with an ienitati0n, on

ing, rattle of musketrY, the roar Of cannon,

The Chimes.

On Tuesday evening last the chime of bells
recently imported from Maneely's factory, in
Troy, N. y, for Kaumakapili Church, were
tested publicly by Mr.. Wray Taylor The
bells had only been placed in position and no
proper test had been made previous to that
night. Mr.. Taylor first ran over the scale,
and then branched off into popular airs,
some of which we're rendered satisfactorily
while others showed marked defects, which
was probably owing to the chime not being
properly adjusted. The bells will undergo
further overhauling and filing, which will
probably render them more in harmony. As
it was The playing was creditable all through
and some of the airs were we'll executed, and
Mr.. Taylor is to be credited with the honor
of having rang the first chime of bells in the
Hawaiian Islands. Alarge assemblage gath
cred to hear the music, and the native por-
ton particularly were highly pleased with
the chimes

Habeas Corpus Again.

Another "have his carcass case. as the
immortal Mr.. Weller, ST., would call it, was
argued before the Chief Justice on Thurs
day. The contention of Mr.. w. X. Castle
was that: 1st. That An Gee and Pack Wal
have recently arrived in the Hawaiian King
dom on the steamer Australia on the 9TH
inst; that they are now detained by a per-
son or persons unknown to them, whose
name they are informed is @. b. Reynolds;
that they are detained at the Quarantine Sta
ton in Honolulu. I'd. That they are not
aware of the cause of their detention, no
canse having been assigned to them. 3D..
That such detention is not on account of
any legal process, and that the same is with
out warrant of law. 4. Wherefore petition
ers pray that writ of habeas colpus may
issue out of this honorable Court directed to
said Reynolds or other persons OBTAINING
them, and that they may be discharged from
such detention.
To this G. B. Reynolds made the following
return:
The return of G. B. Reynolds, the de-
fendant, to tine writ of habeas corpus directed
to him, respectfully submits that said An
Yee and Pack Wal we're heretofore held by
him at the Quarantine Grounds, as an agent
of the Board of Health, by order of said
Board, for the reason that they, together
with their baggage, were considered to be
dangerous to the public health, and that haV-
Ing D6eu uuly lHSp6CteO anu Tue USUAL Illne
for their release having expired, he now
brings them before the Court with the writ,
as therein he is commanded, With the re-
quest and prayer that for the aforesaid rea-
SONS the said An Yee and Pack Wal may be
discharged.
The Attorney General said that the petit
TONERS we're not now IN custody of the re-
spondent; that they and their baggage, being
considered dangerous to the public health,
we're held by the Board of Health, and that
the period for holding them has now lapsed.
Mr.. Castle claimed that the petitioners
had been wrongfully held; that there Was no
law authorizing the Government to detain
them.
The Court, after hearing respondents re-
turn, considers that no opinion on the merits
OF the case Is necessary, and orders the Pc
tltloners discharged, respondent to pay costs.
w. r. Castle and F. NJ Hatch for petitioners;
the Attorney General for G. B. Reynolds, re-
spondent.

Appealed in Vain.

w. II. Vance, who appealed to the Supreme
Court from the Police Court, where he had
been sentenced to four months Imprisonment
and 500 fine for assault with pistol on Z.
c. Marden, was found guilty by a jury and
his sentence increased. In passing sentence
His Honor, Mr.. Justice McCully, said:
" You have been convicted of the offense of
an assault with dangerous weapon, pistol.
The views that | am about to express are con-
Cured in by all the judges. We regard the
offense of pistol shooting as highly criminal.
1t is true that the practice has become very
common in many of the American States.
There the habit of carrying weapons is COM
mon, although unlawful, and the use of them
is frequent. This has not been the case in
this Kingdom, and the court will endesver to
treat instances of it when they occur in way
to discourage the practice. The direct ten
dency of mans carrying pistol is to cause
other men to carry pistols until, if permitted,
the practice becomes general. Pistols being
carried are then used. 1t comes upon the
mere motion of the hand; a man is shot
down in alleged self-defeDse. That is q bar
barous condition of things and not the con-
dition of country governed by law. In your
case the aim was close one, and mardeu
narrowly escaped wounds or death. There
was certainly no justification for it, and no
provocation. You have brought your case to
this court by your appeal after proper con-
NlCIlOu anu d uOIeEdLo bouLouCe. IOu udQ
no reasonable defense to make here. Every
thing was admitted here to support the charge.
The court intends generally to mark appeals
taken without reason, and where the penalty
has been light, by an increase of the penalty.
But the main reason for the increase which
the court is about to give is that it considers
the former penalty as too light for the Of
fense. Instead of the four months impris-
onment the court now imposes six months.
1t reduces the fine from 800 to $50, as the
court does not desire to punish such an of
fense so mucn by fine as by Imprisonment" J"

The Opium Law.

Before the full bench on Saturday, Mr..
Dare argued the appeal of Young Tang, sem
fenced to $1,000 nne and two years imprison-
ment for having opinm in possession with
out license. The points taken we're IL
that there was not sufficient evidence pre-
sented In the lower Court, and that the pro
visions of the act do not warrant such q sem
tence; ~ that the law itself cannot be con-
strued by any Court, and is therefore void;
~ the law is unconstitutional.
Mr.. Dare made an able argument, and was
replied to by Hon. Paul Neumann on behalf
of the Crown, who owned the law to be am
biguOus, and did not consider the prisoner
could be held under Section 8, but the law
contained enough to show the intention of
the Legislature.

Alden.

Mr.. and Mrs. Schaefer, who leave by the
Australia to-day, intend to 90 to New Orleans
where Mr.. Schaefer will visit his brother
whom he has not seen for thirty years, and
who has been resident il that city for that
time. After a stay in the Crescent City for
some weeks, Mr.. and Mrs. Schaefer will pro
ceed to Europe, either via New York or
direct from New Orleans. They will return
here in the Fall. Their many friends wish
them bon uogage

Busted.

The prisoner Manuel Brito. who was con-
yicted in the Police Court of having opium in
possession was, on appeal 10 the Supreme
Court, set free on Monday, the court consid-
ering that the man could not be held under
the law. The court will give its reasons later,
in writing. This practically breaks the opium
law of 1886.
